Aquarium Advice FINatic
I'm toying around with the idea of getting an RO/DI unit for my tap water, but I already have a filtration system on my kitchen sink so I'm not sure how much my tank will benefit from it. I have a 150G SW tank with live rock that one day hopes to be a reef. I don't know what kinds of corals I want to get yet, probably lots of different ones, but I want as many options open as possible so that when the time comes to plan for corals and anemones, I have lots of freedom.
My question is this: how exactly do I test my tap water to see what kind of benefit RO/DI will do for me? What types of measurements should I be looking for? What will they mean? I'm sure there are articles you can point me to but if anyone has personal experience that would help out a lot too. Thanks,
